The 10th Anniversary edition of Tyler, The Creator's 2015 album, on 2LP translucent blue vinyl with the alternate "Mask" cover.
A 10th Anniversary 2LP on translucent blue vinyl, in a gatefold jacket with the alternate "Mask" cover and an 8-page booklet. Cherry Bomb debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 and reached No. 5 in Canada.
Cherry Bomb is the Tyler, The Creator record that had people scratching their heads in 2015 and nodding along by 2025. He produced the whole thing himself (Incubus guitarist Mike Einziger helped out on two tracks), and it's the sound of an artist throwing every idea he had at the wall: blown-out punk-rap on one track, lush jazz-funk chords on the next, with "Deathcamp" and "Fucking Young / Perfect" out ahead of it as a pair of very different calling cards.
The guest list tells you how far his ambitions stretched: Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Pharrell, Charlie Wilson, Kali Uchis, ScHoolboy Q and the vibraphone great Roy Ayers all turn up. Tyler himself called it "the music I've always wanted to make," and in hindsight you can hear the road to Flower Boy and Igor being paved right here, all those big chords and sunny melodies waiting to step out from under the noise. The album came with several alternate covers back in the day, and this anniversary pressing puts the masked one front and centre. Flip it over, start again, and you'll keep catching things you missed the first time around.
